ABSTRACT

   OSI Access and Directory includes several DUAs and a	QUIPU based DSA
   (originally based on	version	6.6) with enhancements.	The DUA/DSA
   enhancements	include:

   - Directory API based on the	X.400 API.
   - Support for X.400 objects including those to support
     MHS use of	Directory to support MHS Routing.
   - Integration with Control Data's MailHub (X.400 MHS) products.
   - X Windows,	curses and command line	based DUA interfaces on	UNIX.
     These interfaces support the full set of Directory	operations.
   - Windows 3.x interface on PCs.
   - A DUA daemon that provides	Directory access for applications.
   - LDAP 2.0 and 3.0 support.
   - Directory synchronization tools for synchronizing most PC/Mac/Dec
     mail directories with X.500.
   - Enhanced photo attribute support.
   - ACL enhancements.
   - Hash indexing for fast string search.
   - DIXIE, DAD	and PH.X500 support.
   - SNMP based	monitoring and management of DSAs.


   Control Data	Systems	offers complete	integration services to	design,
   plan, install, configure, tailor and	maintain X.500 services.  These
   services may	include	the preparation	of customer unique DUAs	and
   tools for X.500 integration,	synchronization, operational control and
   management. OSI Access and Directory	is in production use at	several
   government, commercial and academic sites. Some sites are supporting
   Directories in excess of 120,000 entries.

RFC 1632		     X.500 Catalog			  Custos


NAME

   Custos
   National Institute of Standards and Technology


KEYWORDS

   API,	Available via FTP, DSA/DUA, Free, Limited Functionality,
   Multiple Vendor Platforms, Needs ISODE, OSI Transport, RFC-1006, Sun,
   UNIX

ABSTRACT

   The implementation consists of a set	DUA library routines, a	terminal
   interface, and a DSA. The implementation was	developed in C on Sun
   SPARCstations under SunOS 4.1.1. All	underlying services are	provided
   by the ISODE	development package. The development package is	also
   used	for encoding and decoding ASN.1	data as	well as	for other data
   manipulation	services. Using	the ISODE package the implementation can
   be run over both TCP/IP and OSI protocols.

   The DSA provides full support for both DAP and DSP protocols,
   conformant with ISO 9594 / CCITT X.500 standards. The DIB is
   maintained using a locally developed	relational database system. The
   interface to	the database system consists of	a set of sql-like C
   functions.  These are designed to allow straightforward replacement
   of the local	database system	with a more powerful commercial	system.
   To achieve better performance several options are supported that
   permit loading of selected portions of the database in core.	When
   these options are selected data can be retrieved more quickly from in
   core	tables;	all modifications to the DIB are directly reflected in
   the in core tables and the database.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for	DSAs and DUAs)

   Custos is fully compliant with the 1988 Standard with the following
   omissions:

   - Search request decomposition
   - Modify Entry operation
   - Modify RDN	operation
   - Abandon operation
   - Strong Authentication
   - Schema checking

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL	RFCs

   [No information provided--Ed.]

INTEROPERABILITY

   Have	successfully interoperated with	QUIPU and OSIWARE over the DAP.
   No DSP interoperability testing has been done.

PILOT CONNECTIVITY

   Limited DUA and DSA connectivity to PSI White Pages Project.

BUGS

   Bugs	may be reported	to the general discussion list,
   [e-mail].

CAVEATS	and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

   No limitations on file sizes, etc. The only side effects to creating
   large files should be in the	area of	performance. Specifically,
   optimization	requires loading parts of the DIB in core so greater
   memory requirements will be necessary for achieving better
   performance with a large database. Any platform the implementation
   can be ported to (generally any platform ISODE can be ported	to)
   should support all features.

INTERNETWORKING	ENVIRONMENT

   RFC-1006; TP4/CLNP (SunLinkOSI) over	802 and	X.25 (SunLink X.25).

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

   It's	only been run on Sun 3 and SPARC, but there are	no known reasons
   why it shouldn't run	on any hardware	running	the ISODE software.

RFC 1632		     X.500 Catalog			  Custos


SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

   It requires UNIX and	the ISODE software package. It's been developed
   and tested with ISODE version 7.0 and Sun OS	version	4.1.1. Uses a
   locally developed relational	DBMS that should be easily replaceable
   with	commercially available relational systems.

AVAILABILITY

   Custos, the NIST implementation of X.500, the OSI Directory,	is
   available for anonymous ftp from osi.ncsl.nist.gov (129.6.48.100)
   using the convention	(user name = anonymous,	password = ident). The
   software is available in two	forms: a tar file and a	compressed tar
   file.

      ./pub/directory/CustosRel_0.2.tar
      ./pub/directory/CustosRel_0.2.tar.Z

   Note: permissions on	the directory ./pub/directory are set so that
   you will be able to "get" files whose names you can provide.	However,
   you will not	be able	to "ls"	the contents of	the directory.

RFC 1632		     X.500 Catalog			      DE


NAME

   DE

KEYWORDS

   Available via FTP, DUA Interface, Free, Included in ISODE, LDAP,
   Multiple Vendor Platforms, Needs ISODE, RFC-1274, RFC-1484, RFC-1487,
   Source, UNIX


ABSTRACT

   DE (Directory Enquiries) is intended	to be a	simple-to-use DUA
   interface, suitable for the naive user, and suitable	for running as a
   public access dua.  it will work on any terminal.  The user is
   presented with a series of (verbose)	prompts	asking for person's
   name; department; organization; country.  There is extensive	on-line
   help.  The matching algorithms are such that	near matches are
   presented to	the user before	less good matches.

   A lot of development	has been done on the interface since it	was
   first described in RFC1292.	The most significant enhancement has
   been	to add power searching - this allows a user to search for an
   entry even when they	do not know the	name of	the organisation in
   which the person works - you	still have to specify the country.  DE
   now provides	UFN style searching.  It is now	possible to search
   locality entries.  DE now uses slightly different search algorithms
   depending on	whether	it is accessing	part of	the Directory mastered
   by a	Quipu DSA - Quipu DSAs tend to use lots	of replication and so
   encourage searching.	 An experimental feature is intended to	give the
   user	more feedback on the likely response time to a query - DE
   maintains a database	of past	information availability and DSA
   responsiveness.  Translations exist into at least 4 different
   languages.

   DE runs over	ISODE DAP and University of Michigan LDAP.  There is a
   version of DE, called DOS-DE, which has been	ported to DOS, and this
   uses	LDAP.

   DE was funded by the	COSINE PARADISE	project, and DE	is used	as the
   PARADISE public access dua.	You can	test the software by telnet to
   128.86.8.56 and logging in as dua --	no password required.

CAVEATS	and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

   DE tries to cater well for the general case,	at the expense of not
   dealing with	the less typical.  The main manifestation of this is
   that	the current version does not handle searching under localities
   very	well.

   It is not possible to display photographs or	reproduce sound
   attributes.
